I think I need to reverse the title of this one to what DOESN’T make me feel older. But, I did do the sit on floor/get up from floor (no hands) without any issues, so that made me feel good. I am also the only one “of my age” that passes our yearly physical intervention class at work. One of the issues is that you need to be able to stand from kneeling while bearing someone else’s weight. I’d say about 1/2 the people 10 years younger than me can’t do it. (Now I’ll go add to the Things That Annoy Me thread how this seems to have no bearing on their ability to keep their positions, so why are we required to do this training and how come I don’t make more, because per our contract, I now have to step in and do the interventions that they can’t be certified to do)
